It was Saturday, and Saturday means playdate for little taehyung and little Jungkook although it's not actually playdate but a weekly lunchtime hangout within the family of Jeon and Kims, they have the time to play together so it's been decided that it'll be called playdate, according to Taehyung.

This Saturday, they had lunchtime just outside the humble house of Kims making the small boys play around within the boundary of the gates.

"Let's go outside, no ones watching Taetae." Jungkook suggests excitedly, looking at their parents busy with grilling meats thus preparing the table while casually exchanging conversation as they catch up for the stuff they miss for a week.

Taehyung thinks they talk nonstop like it's a necessity to announce the things they do everyday for a week especially those peculiar happenings. And he thinks it's cool, maybe he already coped the mannerisms that him and Jungkook, or kookie for that matter, are both loud and talks nonstop whenever they had the chance.

"Kookie, we're gonna get scolded." Taehyung albeit love the idea to go outside for a change, especially to the playground just across the street he knows his parents will get very angEry and he's scared.

"But I want to play at the slides taetae!" Jungkook have the eyes of a puppy, the most adorable one. Taehyung sometimes hates how cute his kookie gets, and he hates to see the eyes that can convince even the heartless ones. You see, Kookie is younger by a year than him, more smaller, and taehyung always thinks kookie is his baby who he wants happy like all the time. No day is an exception.

"Please taetae, it'll be quick I pwomise."

"O-ok. Just 1 second?"

Taehyung doesn't know how long is one second, he's just 5, and for hell he believes til when 1 second lasts.

"Yes yes!" Jungkook jumps, excited.

Taehyung holds Jungkook's hand firmly and led him to the gates. They were both cautious not to get the attention of their parents as they walk fast but quiet.

They had to cross the road, and Taehyung's heart is beating fast. He's having second thoughts especially when he left his inhaler in his mom's pocket and he already feels his lungs begin to ask for oxygen and his breath fastens a little, but Jungkook looks so happy.

With all of his courage, he firmly holds Kookie's hand, wrapping it within his bigger one, he made sure no vehicles are passing by before running across the streets as fast as their little feet can manage.

Jungkook let go of Taehyung's hand the moment they reached the playground, some little kids by their age are also playing, and kookie couldn't be more excited.

"Taetae! Wook wook!" Kookie firstly ran to the slides, he began to climb it as he show his talent of climbing to Taehyung.

Taehyung clutched his chest as his other hand waves excitedly to kookie, showcasing his boxy smile.

Taetae's chest is in a little pain. But taetae wants to play with kookie and so he ignores it. Running to kookie towards the slide, he climbs up following kookie to the chamber and they slides down together. They're happy, Soo happy. That time, nothing matters but their smiles and laughters.

"What the fuck are you wearing taehyung?"

Brows furrowed, arms crossed over his hard chest, the sleeves of his shirt tightly clutching on his bulking muscles, an expensive leather jacket is placed hanging on his shoulder. If Taehyung knew, he's just flexing his toned arms for Taehyung to feel more insecure than he already is. Leaning against his expensive car, not enjoying the night already.
